  • 6Th I-DSD Symposium Programme. 29Th June – 1St July 2017, Copenhagen, Denmark
    6th I-DSD Symposium Programme. 29th June – 1st July 2017, Copenhagen, Denmark Abstracts Session 1 – Setting The Scene “Stuck in the middle” Eric Vilain MD PhD For families, the birth of a child with a Disorder/Difference of Sex Development (DSD), and uncertainty about the child’s gender and future psychosocial development, is believed to be very stressful. Potential stressors include the parents’ need to gather medical information, make decisions about gender assignment and surgical interventions, cope with medical treatments and the possibility of multiple operations, and handle familial strains related to the perceived stigma of DSD. These stressors are amplified by a large number of uncertainties in the management of DSD. I will review the current uncertainties in the world of DSD (naming, diagnosis, gender, genital surgery, disclosure, fertility, outcomes) and discuss how I have attempted to navigate the waters –often troubled- flowing between the different stakeholders involved with DSD. Session 2 – International Collaborations & Moving Forward The needs of people with conditions affecting sex development Joanne Hall (CLIMB CAH Group) Joanne is a mother of two daughters with salt wasting Congenital Adrenal Hyperplasia and is a member of the UK based CAH support group. Joanne represents the support group at European COST Action meetings and through this recently co-ordinated a European based patient/parent workshop, primarily to engage with professionals and discuss what has worked and has not worked with patient care from childhood through to adulthood. Using learning from this workshop, along with her personal and professional experience of working with families and facilitating groups, Joanne hopes to provide information and practical guidance for professionals to engage with parents and patients, in order to find out what the needs are for people affected by conditions of sexual development within the professional’s own local clinical setting.
